Weather for NearSys Station, 2018

As expected, the air temperature peaked at the end of July and beginning of August (The Dog Days). NearSys Station experienced three heat waves, one at the end of January, a second at the end of October, and a third in mid-December. The relative humidity was its lowest during the hottest time of the year, but none of that data was collected during the winter to get a complete picture. We had 6.5 inches of rain and 4.7 inches of snow. That is a lower than average amount of precip. There was no precip during July, August, and September. The ground temperature followed the trends in the air temperature, but with a delay.
